The dog does look worried. However he may have been thinking, " Please leave me at the SPCA and don't take me to some rat hole, god forsaken country." -

Should JWs perform immigration screening for jihadiis ?
by gone for good injehovah's witlesses worship and serve the same desert god as do all the worlds jihadists.
both these groups experience the same giddy delight contemplating the worldwide annihilation of infidels .
jihadists and jw's share the same wet dream of theocracy - the idea that public governance is best left to an invisible genocidal, misogynistic homophobic, sadistic, megalomaniacal bully...and his (male) earthly imitators.. jw's and jihadiis both covet their delusion of imagining themselves as the sole survivors of a global bloodbath - think of the stupendous irony there!.

Trump would want to kick both of them out.
How about jihadiis placed at street corners. They could be used to identify JW's calling door-to-door. Supplied with a whistle they could blow a warning and everyone on the street could hide behind curtains and sofas. When they have passed by the block the jihadiis at the other end of the street could blow a whistle indicating 'all clear'.

Do you know any JW who has ever done this?
by Esse quam videri injesus had much to say about the kind of giving his followers should practice.
for example, the following:matt 6:3 '...but when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing...'.
matt 10:8 '... freely you have received; freely give...'.

Jesus had much to say about the kind of giving his followers should practice.
For example, the following:
Matt 6:3 '...But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing...'Matt 10:8 '... Freely you have received; freely give...'
However, he gave more specific instructions in Luke 14: 12-14.
Luke 14:12 ... “When you spread a dinner or an evening meal, do not call your friends or your brothers or your relatives or your rich neighbors. Otherwise, they might also invite you in return, and it would become a repayment to you. 13 But when you spread a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;+ 14 and you will be happy, because they have nothing with which to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection+ of the righteous ones.”
Do you know of any time any JW's have done this or been encouraged to do this? Ever?

Okay, obviously this is tongue in cheek.
However, in answer to your question, I decide. It's my topic.
Maybe we make it a little tougher and tell them to explain it without using Fred Franz in their answer.

When I was young we had one of the 'remnant' in our congregation in Burnaby, B.C. When I was 15 my mother asked me to temporary pioneer [or was it vacation pioneer?] for a summer, to encourage Br. Harold Franske, one of the 'remnant'. I went in service with him just about everyday. [ The only thing I can remember from that summer was him showing me how a good janitor puts a curve in a broom handle, over time, by bearing down hard. "That's how you really clean a floor. Pushing hard on the handle. That makes the broom head sweep better." He had a janitor business. He showed me the broom handles in his work van. They had curves in the handles.
Anyway, I would come home and think, " Wow! He's one of the 'remnant'. I'm working with one of the 'remnant'."
I can just imagine Governing Body member Mark Sanderson speaking with awe about the 'remnant' when he was younger. Now he are one. Must take the awe away when you are one yourself. Especially working with the likes of Morris lll and Lett.

Too Much Discontent in the Congregation Part 3
by Simon Templar innow, 80-85 years later, we are still here.
if i was to do the counsel with a brother who had this much experience, i would have just thanked him for doing the talk, and marked him good on the point.
this is a good way to get money though.

Sorry but it doesn't look like much of a paradise to me.
